Camping 101: What To Pack and Prices
Camping can be an affordable adventure, especially when you gradually invest in gear that lasts for years! Here are some important tips and prices to consider:
🪑 Seating:
- Eno Hammocks and chairs are personal favorites, known for their durability. You can find similar products on Amazon for a lower budget, but high-quality gear that lasts is worth the investment!
⛺ Tent + Others:
- Splurging on a tent is recommended since it's the most crucial piece of gear. Five-person tents can range from $100 to $1,000. Check Facebook Marketplace for affordable options as well.
🧊 Cooler:
- Price ranges for coolers vary, but Target or Walmart have good options too.
🔥 Bonfire:
- Fancy metal sticks can be reused for years, but if you don't camp often, wooden sticks from Home Depot work just fine! Share your favorite campfire treats or meals in the comments!
🍽️ Food:
- Personal food preferences differ, but here are some helpful tips:
- Camping cookingware sets start as low as $20.
- If you prefer quick and easy meals, trusted companies like REI offer a variety of prepared camping meals online, from pad Thai to lasagna.
- Don't forget to try dehydrated ice cream, a space treat that also works as a camping snack!
